AoL 060 - Delivering Who You Are Through Personal Tribute Videos

In today’s world, people are not used to compliments. In fact, they’re used to the opposite – complaints.

When people are asked why they dread going to work, one of the most common responses is, “I feel like I don’t belong.”

Part of that can be attributed to only being reprimanded when they do something bad. Not necessarily be thanked when they actually perform well on the job.

Today’s guest, Joey Chandler, is trying to change that – one person at a time.

Through his work via You Are Videos, people get to actually hear good things about themselves for once.
